GET=FAT DIET

MISS KAY STAMMERS’S METHOD. While most lawn tennis stars do all they can to remove unwanted ounces Miss Kay Stammers wonders how to gain a few pounds, states. a London writer. She weighs only Bst 2oz. She should weigh ,at least 9st. ”1 do everything I can to put on a few pounds, ’ she said. “But just over eight stone seems to be my fighting weight. I certainly feel very fit.” Her get-fat diet includes plenty of fruit, at least one big salad a day, with plenty of mayonnaise, vegetables, meat, all to the good, wholesome foods and no fads. And by way of extra nourishment her mother insists that she drink stout. But she is always so busy that she has no time to put on those wished-for pounds. As well as her daily tennis practice at Wimbledon she is helping to arrange charity tournaments, doingall the work of organising and collecting players. She arranged one in Wiltshire recently, at a friend’s country house in between knocking up with her ifriends, in practice matches and lessons with Dan Maskell. In her spare time she swims, rides, plays golf, attends luncheons and watches other people play other games. But she is very firm about one thing. She refuses to indulge in late nights. For the last two months she has kept to a strict early-to-bed rule.
